“Running Man Philippines,” the local adaptation of South Korea’s “Running Man,” has given fans a peek at the games and challenges that its cast of celebrity contestants will go through as it released its official trailer.
The trailer featured all seven cast members—Glaiza de Castro, Mikael Daez, Ruru Madrid, Kokoy De Santos, Buboy Villar, Lexi Gonzales and Angel Guardian—competing against each other in various missions, as seen on the show’s Twitter page yesterday, Aug. 19.
The games shown in the trailer included team-based relay races and pool challenges, among others. All episodes in the series were shot in South Korea, the home of the original producers of the show, the Korean TV network SBS.
“GMA, in collaboration with SBS, brings you the much awaited reality game show on Philippine TV, Running Man Philippines! Kakayanin bang harapin ng 7 runners ang mga matitinding missions (Can the seven runners survive the extreme missions)?” it stated.
